The Monday after Easter. . .
Monday, April 09, 2007 Edit This 2 Comments »
i had a awesome weekend...........
we had our Maundy Thursday service which we do yearly with a neighboring church which was wonderful of course. we had communion and did a cermonial foot washing.
we had our Good Friday service with some dynamic preachers bringing the word (I didn't go this year however. I was pooped and we are typically there allllllllllllllllll night).
we had a dynamic Resurrection Sunday service, with our mimes and liturgical dancers ministering and our pastor brought the word from Mark 16:1-7
i had great fellowship and dinner with friends where we laughed alllll night till our stomachs and cheeks hurt, talking about movies, books, politics, personal stories and the like.
but then someone said it. Easter Monday... i don't know why that phrase or term irks me soooo much but it does.. in my mind, i'm like why Easter Monday? What is so significant about Monday and why does it have to have a name and why is it a holiday. its simply the Monday after Easter. :)
I looked it up b/c supposedly its celebrated as a holiday in some parts of the country (see the link above). . . i guess, i can learn to accept it . . . . I dunno. . .
anyway, I hope you all had an equally exciting holiday. . . !!!!!
